 Our Library 
 

ONA BOOK LENDING LIBRARY

There is a good sprinkling of reference books and recent catalogues that can be borrowed free-of-charge (all you pay for is postage). Contact Book Lending Librarian Tom Rogers, 519-451-2316 or e-mail trogers@sympatico.ca

ONA AUDIO-VISUAL LENDING LIBRARY

We have an extensive audio-visual (AV) lending library available to both individual members and club members. Contact Audio Visual Lending Librarian Len Trakalo, 519-756-5137 (available only evenings and on weekends) or e-mail ltrakalo@sympatico.ca.

From time-to-time, announcements are published in the ONA Numismatist about the availability of VCR tape programs that can be borrowed by members. The nominal $5.00 charge covers handling and postage one way, with the borrower prepaying the return postage. This fee applies whether one or a quantity of programs are borrowed.

Our AV lending library includes numismatic programs on a wide variety of topics. Many of our tools are now converted to CDs and DVDs and have been given to the local coin clubs to serve their members, so ask your local club regarding library access and benefits of membership in their club.

Below are some of the topics currently available on CDs / DVDs from our AV lending library.

 Special Benefit to ONA Member Clubs 

Thanks to the generosity of the London Numismatic Society, the O.N.A. can offer, at no charge, a DVD disc containing over 50 PowerPoint presentations to O.N.A. member clubs.  Each presentation is suitable for a program at a club meeting.  Topics include Canadian decimal coins, tokens and paper money, world coins and paper money, and London Ontario items of interest.  An update of the DVD is expected spring 2010.

Each club is allowed to possess one copy ONLY of the DVD and ownership of the DVD and contents remains with the London Numismatic Society (LNS).  Any club that allows copies to be made will not be allowed future updates.  An Executive member of an interested club only has to contact Len Trakalo and supply mailing information.  Clubs that have already expressed an interest (as at Feb. 2010) include: Brantford, North York, Ottawa, Scarborough, South Wellington, and Waterloo.  Future updates will be automatically sent out as they become available to the O.N.A. member clubs that have made the request to be on the distribution list.

The presentations are best viewed using a digital projector but can be shown to a smaller group just using a laptop computer or good-sized monitor.  We are currently investigating the option of viewing the slides on some DVD players.  The text for each presentation has to be printed out beforehand so it can be read out loud as each slide is shown.  Of course, the equipment should be checked out ahead of time and the use of a DVD lens cleaner is encouraged.  If the PowerPoint programs will not load properly, just Google "PowerPoint viewer" and download (free) the latest PowerPoint presentation viewer update from http://www.microsoft.com/ site. Contact Len Trakalo and the ONA if you have difficulty using the DVD.

Each club that takes advantage of this offer should thank the London Numismatic Society and especially Ted Leitch who chairs this project!  They have unselfishly provided several years of programs and show the benefit of co-operation and of belonging to larger organizations such as the Ontario Numismatic Association
